Coming in August 2012

What makes a writer successful? Talent, tenacity and  hard work are key components especially when bolstered by fellowship and advice from other writers. For Kevin Symmons,  the skills he honed while building one of New England’s most successful manufacturing companies helped prepare him for similar challenges in his new profession.

Since his days as an undergraduate, Kevin harbored one dream — writing a novel. What began as a part-time project blossomed into an obsession, as Kevin breathed life into the characters and scenarios he devised. He navigated several genres of fiction including women’s fiction, paranormal romance and his current work, a mainstream thriller with strong romantic elements, titled “Sanctuary”. Kevin has also collaborated with award — winning screenwriter and playwright Barry Brodsky, forging an original story concept into a screenplay.
